to the teachers of Sunday school.
The message only
changes slightly, but it doeth change.
For generations people have relied on other people to teach them what is true and what is false. With the rise of the Internet, communities have made contact with others they would not otherwise rub shoulders with in a thousand years. Young adults today have been asking questions and finding answers from sources previously unavailable to them. Even children are coming to parents asking about things taught as fact, which have proven to be doubtful. Skillful parenting today is daring the art of discussion, less about discipline, as old and ineffective family paradigms are being overthrown from the bottom-up, again.
The particulars here in this book are a few things which adults should have known. If you are a parent, then you might start paying attention as much as your kids imagine you are. Prepare now. Get ahead of the curve before your children find out on their own what’s up; that is, how much you are not paying attention.
When kids stop believing in Santa Claus, it does not translate that the adults must stop enjoying the spirit of Christmas. If the New Testament books in the Christian Bible have been tampered with, that does apply pressure on the Sunday school to investigate, but it releases pressure if you actually think about it. If Vampires are to blame, not ordinary humans, then maybe Christians in America can finally get off their antidepressants, you know, be set free. Popular religious teachings might be factored in the solution, as well as understanding the causes.
One could say that Jesus himself anticipated world interconnectivity coming like a thief in the night. This is what he did to the people of his day, was to blow their minds and most did not appreciate it. Why? He provided new information.
Then Jesus flew back to Heaven, but he has since grown weary of watching humanity through endless banks of telescopes and blinking monitors, plus he is exhausted from shaking hands at the pearly gates and kissing babies. Really, seriously, why go backwards? As soon as humanity quits believing, he can get back to what matters; a little woodworking, a little wine, and a little hanging out with friends. He traded in the horse for a Harley long, long ago, even before motorcycles were invented.
The classic movie, The Wizard of Oz, has also improved from advanced technology. For decades a family could watch it on television only one time per year and now we can replay every line on YouTube 24/7. Most viewers don’t recall Dorothy’s response when the wizard confessed to her that he is the great and powerful Oz. The humble little man standing there tells her that he is one and the same with the image projected onto a ball of flames. He states with hesitation while looking her in the eye, “I am the great and powerful Oz.”
What does Dorothy reply? If we couldn’t rewind, her response would fly right past us. “I don’t believe you!” she said. Why say that? Because the script writers knew that’s how people are. We desperately want to believe, but can’t. What can’t we believe? That a fantastic god-like being was formed from the image of an ordinary human, not vice versa. We prefer the fantastic all-powerful neighborhood bully because we’ll do almost anything to get him on our side. The Fantastic is a motivator many need to take action.
Isn’t that what Jesus, the humble carpenter said: “I am the great and powerful Oz.”? And many replied, “I don’t believe you.” It is actually the fault of Jesus for not better preparing the message; that many of his followers would one day lose their way. Not one day many would lose their way, but that one at a time, believers grow weary and slip out without mentioning they won’t be back. If Jesus spoke from flames at their church, they’d be back.
Believing can have diminishing returns, you know, like that the wizard will return riding in a balloon one day soon bringing loads of cake. Children demand to know the facts before belief, during belief, and after belief – in light of the larger world community and the Internet.
Back when I myself solidly believed, I heard the idea that people share molecules with every human being that has ever existed. I felt a tinge of awe that the same dust molecules once clinging to the sandal of Jesus Christ could be circulating in my blood. Dust from Heaven is perfectly pure, you know. The intersection where the Divine leaves off and where humanity begins has been sought after with basically lousy results, the exception being the few purest molecules circulating our human blood like gold flecks, unannounced.
The spirit-human overlap is a rare molecular particle intersection, so we’ve been taught. Little tiny vibrations orbiting Heaven dropped down and entered Earth’s dimension. Two thousand eleven or so years ago a concentration of such particles fell in the Land of Israel, then exploded into the clouds, and now circulates today in America and beyond. Oxygen was richer in former days and lately it is harder for our brains to think despite the infusion. Hence wheat grass shots and countless supplements on the market packed with super nutrients and somehow we still feel depressed. Somebody has not been telling us the whole story, deep down, we suspect.
Heaven is what this planet needs after all, whole hog, not just particles of it. That includes endless banquets with all of your friends, not just crumbs from banquets past.
Lately came the Internet and the whole story, pasted together by human hands. If you’d like to know what is happening come 2012, it’s that Jesus has delayed himself out of existence, finally. We have no doubt that he’s been regularly checking his watch, but things are starting without him. Sorry. If somebody is to blame, blame the Vampires. Since they messed up the story from the beginning, it’s goofy to the end, and you’ll soon discover how from the few missing particles.
In another movie about super-consciousness, The Secret was about a secret exposed, but not the secret about Vampires or about Jesus. According to the script, this was about “a secret” which had been kept by the world elite which held the masses of populations enslaved to them. This film revealed that the secret was a law called, “The Law of Attraction.” It went on to explain various techniques to harness the wonderful abundance available to all who understood the law, not just a law benefitting the super rich.
The Secret began filming as a documentary about the work of Esther and Jerry Hicks and then had to leave them out, so “the secret” was that the movie became misguided itself. The core concept was yanked when Ms. Hicks pulled out and what remained tended to fall apart. The film’s experts standing-in did a decent job and acted fairly convincingly, but the illusion faded as the newer cast was featured on The Oprah Show. The elephant in the room was that Esther Hicks was missing and could not be replaced.
There were literally two versions of “the secret movie.” The initial version reminded us that “the great and powerful Oz” was just a man, like us. What The Secret Version Two cut was the idea that if God could become human, it follows that to be human is Divine. You might say, wait, nobody said that. That’s right. That was the crucial part left out. The secret from history hidden by the Vampires wasn’t that Jesus was Divine; it’s that you are Divine.
There are lots of implications to that, but the movie The Secret skipped the entire subject. It flopped for people attempting techniques they didn’t fully believe, a little like contemporary western faiths. Instead of acknowledging that humanity possesses special powers by nature, the movie stated that humans are subject to a law, which is fairly ancient news. The radical idea left-out is that you are something more than you imagine you are.
Somebody has tampered with the historical record, even the holy Christian New Testament, and I’m suggesting that behind the tampering was a particular class of humans called Vampires. I don’t care much whether you believe it because the evidence is all over the place if one searches. Vampires. They are not reflected in the Christian New Testament; they just penciled in critical parts of it. That’s all, and the part they specifically left out was that you are Divine. Maybe it’s time you knew it.
Jesus tried desperately to tell us, but Vampires quickly kicked him upstairs to the executive branch and then scratched in the margins, “Only Jesus.” What Jesus would have said, given the opportunity, is that the Divine molecule is you and it’s wearing the ruby slippers.
Speaking as one who has been on the journey for many years, when you lose your faith, you get it back -- if faith has been the quest. It comes back improved and returns as a gift, which pretty much nobody else can fully appreciate as much as you.

The
parable of The Enemy Sowing Tares.
Who were the ones sowing tares?
Read on to find out.
Long, long ago, your distant relatives lived in tents or earthen huts without electricity and no telephones. If you wanted to visit your friends back then, you needed to walk on a trail or ride an animal like a donkey, a camel or even an elephant. If you ate a Sno-cone, it was made from real snow.
Even though this type of normal life existed across an entirely primitive planet for thousands of years, we can barely imagine it today, children who played outside without insect repellent or sunscreen while parents, aunts, and uncles physically worked the land. Going backwards in time we discover that the ancestors who birthed your great, great grandparents came from tribes roaming places like Britain, Germany, Russia, India or from whole continents like Africa and the Americas, people raised in small village huts who rode places on animals.
When you follow the history of any nation, the further back in time you go, the larger became the distances between them. We cannot conceive of their thoughts about the world, how the stars appeared, or how they prepared a morning meal. Even harder to imagine is what good character meant and what made an ancient people laugh or cry.
Some of these peoples kept records about their lives, but most did not. We can assume that stories about the amazing things which happened to them are lost forever. For example, you know limited details about your own family beyond one generation. You might recount the places where they settled, but that’s about it. These people had what they had, the best in their day and are gone, vanished.
The further back in time we go, the less information about humanity we find. A family squabble, an act of kindness that altered a destiny, or a tear shed a thousand years ago is half one drop in an ocean of time. The details that survived were general, like myths and regional legends, written on clay tablets or scratched on stones or kept as paper scrolls hidden in caves. Whole generations came and went without leaving a single trace.
This tale is about a people who left few records, but have recently come to public attention, that is, Vampires. Historians know now that they existed, not from their own accounts, but from hollow spaces in the written stories of civilization, that is, the missing pieces of the historical puzzle. Pattern, pattern, space, pattern, space. So no, Vampires were not able to hide forever because of “gaps between the trees.” The trick to see them is to squint your eyes at the historical record, the forest, in relief.
The legend that Vampires show no reflection in mirrors began here, the recognition of the Vampire’s keen ability to live within a culture, to benefit from the fullness of plenty, and not be noticed. They were like mushrooms with complex root networks extending for miles underground. They could sense the most delicate shifts around them and vanish with the morning sun or suddenly appear in the night.
During the ancient days, Vampire folklore was generally unknown. The legends attributed to Vampires beginning several hundred years ago in Eastern Europe were caricatures of imaginary beings, however, they did exist as an earlier class of people, passing unseen. The irony was that they often were the scribes shaping history, but rarely identified themselves, knowing that persecution and murder would be the result. In Latin, Vampires coined the original phrase which translates: Don’t shoot me I’m only the piano player. However, that concept had no effect because Vampires were loathed in Industrial-Age Europe as many of the accused, mostly falsely, were put to death in the cruelest of ways.
The first record of Vampires came from the Old Russian form Упирь commonly accepted to be in a document dated 1047 C.E. It is a colophon in a manuscript of the Book of Psalms written by a priest who transcribed the book from Glagolitic into Cyrillic for the Novgorodian Prince Volodymyr Yaroslavovych. The priest writes that his name is "Upir' Likhyi " (Оупирь Лихыи), which means Wicked Vampire or Foul Vampire. This has been cited as the earliest example of paganism touching one of humanity’s most sacred texts.
Vampires had originated not from a single genetic line, but from several regional tribes sharing common resources. This included Midianites, Amalekites, and children from Mannassah, one of the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel. Original family members trace back to both Egypt and Israel before Moses, but were not an evolved social unit until after Gideon, as recorded in the Biblia Hebraica. Gideon had seventy sons from many wives, two of whom were Vampire sisters and gave birth to sons, Abimelech and Jotham, rivals that shot future consequences forward to “the days of Jesus” and onward even to this day.
The first clan of Vampires resulted from the tribal custom of child abandonment. That meant that undesired babies and toddlers were taken away and left to die by exposure. In these ancient days, it was allowed that any person living outside the village could rescue the forsaken child. For reasons unknown, many children in this desert region were abandoned and rescued, likely due to increases in regional trade bringing contact with foreigners carrying new diseases and customs. The “sin of fornication” might also lead to an unwanted pregnancy and an abandoned baby.
Vampire descendents suffered from a shared blood disorder, porphyria, which caused a pale appearance and likewise made them sensitive to the sun. Due to the types of hard labor available during that era, Vampires moved into positions of leadership within various “lost tribes” spread between Egypt and Israel, and concentrated south of The Sea of Galilee. In their first one hundred years, even Vampires did not recognize their own unique group identity.
Porphyrias are a group of inherited or acquired disorders causing either neurological complications or skin problems (or occasionally both). The term derives from the Greek πορφύρα, porphyra, meaning “purple pigment.” The name is likely to have been a reference to the purple discoloration of feces and urine in patients during an attack. Although original descriptions are attributed to Hippocrates, the disease was first explained biochemically by Felix Hoppe-Seyler in 1871. The worldwide prevalence has been estimated to be as low as 1 in 500 people. To Vampires 3,500 years ago, having purple feces denoted royal blood, which was a fiercely kept secret.
As weakly Vampire children grew to adulthood, the males spent more time with their mothers than normal males and therefore acquired more feminine savvy than their peers. Their return into society as innovative leaders helped to bond together rough bands of native peoples. The peak of their influence was between 1,500 and 1,200 B.C.E. The original families made efforts to stop the practice of child abandonment and displayed exemplary behavior in their communities as they sought to understand their own “disorder.”
At their regional center, counsels of Vampires were held within the villages of Al-Fulah and Afula, the former being the birthplace of the original family of Dracula. “Draco” comes from the word “draconian,” meaning unjustly harsh or severe. A community sometimes witnesses this quality in people who try to do right, yet are critical of others. The Dracula name became identified with upstanding morals and other Vampires joined with them, for the network provided wealth, safety and prestige to all who were affiliated.
In most regions of the planet, conditions would have been too harsh for this intimate society to continue for more than several decades, but the land was fruitful with a bounty of vineyards, pastures, and abundant with fish and game. The Vampire-type prospered and spread village by village amongst the eastern nations of the Mediterranean Sea.
It is also likely that the Vampire peoples would have merged into the general march of civilization, had not this unlikely human experiment taken a sudden turn for the worse. For as the land prospered, the relations between the native peoples and the Vampire offspring began to weaken the society as a whole. Adults who had been adopted as baby children clashed with their adult siblings. Here is where the untold story of the ancient Vampire nation intersects with the written record of the life of a wealthy Sumerian named Abraham and one of his wives, Sarah.
The land of preIsrael became ripe for a takeover, but little was recorded about the makeup of the original tribes populating the land. As the descendents of Abraham and Sarah took this region, many of the Vampire line were lost in battle along with the other inhabitants. However, because the Israelites and Vampires shared a common appearance from Sumerian ancestry, some Vampires managed to escape into Egypt and others were absorbed into the general Jewish culture, not by marriage, but from owning large herds of livestock. Enterprising Vampires were selling the finest meats in the villages and bartered with the nobility, which gave those who sold and gorged on meat the reputation for “sucking on blood,” considered a luxury and a privilege in that time.
As the first Vampire lines had thinned due to the influx of Israeli peoples, Vampire wealth consolidated and their loyalty to each other grew. Their common pale appearance and similar bad dental arches were overlooked as Vampire families blended into the region, rarely two families being seen together at one time; instead gathering at night. They mastered the art of being “second in command,” that is, keeping their influences obscure except to the most wealthy and powerful of the land.
